The Tung Auditorium is a state-of-the-art, high specification concert hall which delivers an outstanding live music performance experience. Situated within the Yoko Ono Lennon Centre with world-class teaching and learning at its heart, The Tung Auditorium celebrates the University’s cultural contribution to the city and seeks to offer an open and inclusive programme, enhancing engagement with the arts locally, regionally and nationally.
We are seeking skilled and experienced Venue Technicians to facilitate the smooth delivery of public concerts and events. This role is ideal for those with experience in live sound, lighting, AV and/or Stage Management who are interested in getting involved with an exciting new venue, delivering an outstanding audience and artist experience across a varied and constantly changing programme. We are particularly interested in those with sound engineering experience but welcome applications from all of the above skillsets.
This role is ad hoc and shift based, allocated according to the requirements of concerts and events which will not follow a regular pattern. For this reason, this role is a zero hours contract with shifts allocated by rota one month in advance. Some events will take place during office hours; however, the majority are expected to be during evenings and weekends.
We are conscious that there is a lack of diversity within the music industry and in Higher Education, and we therefore particularly encourage applications from individuals who self-identify as members of groups who are often under-represented.
The School is committed to the Universitys Diversity and Equality agenda and in 2021 has been awarded Athena SWAN Bronze status and is now working towards Silver.
Our commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
We are committed to enhancing a workforce as diverse as our community and particularly encourage applicants who are of minoritised genders and ethnic backgrounds, living with a disability, and/or are members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
